Salford Trotter Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Psychologically that win was huge over Novak so i can see him being No.1 was a good while to come Quote
gonzo Posted November 20, 2016 Author Posted November 20, 2016 Maybe novak has started to eat gluten again Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Controlled the first set and dominated the second, barring a little blip. Excellent performance. Quote
MalcolmW Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Controlled the first set and dominated the second, barring a little blip. Excellent performance. However, he was match point down against Raonic in the semi yesterday - fine margins! Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 However, he was match point down against Raonic in the semi yesterday - fine margins! It is. He had lost three match points first though. Truly champion performance tonight; looked at home with his game and little histrionics. Quote
jayjayoghani Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Big disappointment was the QF exit at the US Open, but other than that he's the main man in men's tennis now. Big year next year for him. Quote
Cheese Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 What makes it even more impressive is he missed a few Ranking events in order to play in the Olympics. Quote
jules_darby Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Arise Sir Murray Bolty will be pleased Quote
Biggish Dave Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Has Gareth Malone been given a knighthood? In fairness, I disagree with sports people given knighthood/Dames. Yes, they are good but only good at something they enjoy. Fuck off. Where's my knighthood for services to supporting a lost cause? Bullshit award for a bullshit person. I guess there is 1 or 2 other just as equally less deserving people on the list Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 It's all a load of nonsense. Can't believe how many folk accept this shit. Quote
jules_darby Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 It's all a load of nonsense. Can't believe how many folk accept this shit. How are folk supposed to unaccept it? Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 How are folk supposed to unaccept it? what you on about?, just don't accept it because it's a load of bollocks Quote
MalcolmW Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 what you on about?, just don't accept it because it's a load of bollocks There is an impressive list of those who have refused the offer of an honour. Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 There is an impressive list of those who have refused the offer of an honour. Yes Malc, and I'd hope Andy Murray will join them Quote
MalcolmW Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Yes Malc, and I'd hope Andy Murray will join them but he obviously accepted it. Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 but he obviously accepted it. what a cunt, maybe he's biding his time to publicly denounce it Quote
frank_spencer Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 There is an impressive list of those who have refused the offer of an honour.And those that do turn it down get more milage out of rejecting it than those who accept it would do.See also Zephaniah, Benjamin Quote
jules_darby Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 And those that do turn it down get more milage out of rejecting it than those who accept it would do. See also Zephaniah, Benjamin Can't believe anyone cares either way Quote
Sweep Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Can't believe anyone cares either way Only dullard cunts get outraged or bothered by these "awards" Quote
Exiled Girl Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Jo Konta wins the women's final in Sydney, thrashing world no 3 Radwanska. Dan Evans into the men's final, having beaten the world no 8 in the previous round. And Jamie Murray with Bruno Soares in the men's doubles final. Heady days for British Tennis. Quote
Casino Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 watched some of konta and she was fantastic very powerful and hitting winners she had no right to hadnt heard about evans, great effort Quote
Exiled Girl Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Evans was on Eurosport, repeated this afternoon at 14:45 - didn't see Konta but by all accounts she was hitting it hard & not allowing Radwanska to play her usual game, which beats most except the hardest hitters. Quote
Sweep Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Has Konta broken into the top 10 yet? - I've always been pretty impressed when I've watched her, and thought that she could challenge for honours, especially as Williams is now hopefully on the wain. Also, as an aside, what's happened with Laura Robson, is she finished now? Quote
Casino Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Our laura does unfortunately seem to have gone Lost seven in a row Mental or physical or a combination, who knows Quote
